I am considering using ejabberd at our company, but need to integrate it with our existing, large sized Active Directory. However, although it's said that ejabberd can be made to work with AD with a patch and a few mods, I have some specific questions regarding our peculiar and complex AD configuration:
1. Can ejabberd integrate with a multi-realm/multi-domain AD environment, where we have some users with and others with ? We need to be able to specify multiple (more than 2) search locations
2. Should you place the Jabber users within AD into a specific AD group?
3. How large an AD can be handled? Or does AD size not matter? We may have thousands of users
4. Can AD groups be passed to ejabberd so that they become shared IM groups?
5. Can traffic to/from the AD server be secured with SSL?
6. Does ejabberd communicate with the Domain Controller or the Global Catalog?
Thanx for your help!
